One of the nicest comedy of errors in
every day life to be imagined was enacted
In the first half of last week, by a number
cf citizens of this place. All seemed to
enjoy the mistake with a xest that is a true
indication that people generally will over
look each others' shortcomings, provided
the shortcoming are unintentional, and to
eertaiuty the result of mistake. The
mistake was brought about by a business
call that required the State's Attorney of
this county, Mr. A. J. Patterson, to go to
Waterford, a place about twenty miles west
of this town. On Tuesday Nr. Patterson
informed th- enterprising livery man, J.
SuloutT, that he desired to hsve a horse and
boggy for a day or two. eulouff said ba
would till the order immediately, and wished
to know where the conveyance should be
ent. Mr. Patterson stated that auy place
by the Belford corner would be a conve
nient place lor him. In accordance with
the suggestion a horse and bugy was sent
to the Belford corner, and left there with
out any one attending it, undor the impres
sion that Patterson would recognise the con
veyance. Meanwhile Joseph Rothrock.Esq.,
of Fermanagh township, came to town Irt a
bufgy, alighted at the Bel ford corner, tied
his hone to one of the numerous post in
that vicinity, and proceeded to attend to
business. By and by the State's Attorney
was ready to start on his way to Waterford,
d, proceeding to the vicinitv of the r!ace
r here he directed the conveyance tu be left
for him, he noticed a number of convey
ances, lie soou selected the one be suo-
j posed intended fur his nse, untied the
horse, got into the boggy, invited Mr. Todd,
of Patterson, to drive with him across the
river. On the way to Patterson Todd asked
who the horse and buggy belonged to. Pat
terson answered that he bad hired it from
Sulouff. Todd's reply was that the horse
looked like one Rottirock used to own.. The
conclusion of the two gentlemen was that a
trade had been effected bctwettn Sulouff and
Roibroch. Mr. Todd was left out at his
place of business, and Mr. Patterson Went
on bis way to Waterford. After a while
KoiUrock came down for bis horse and
baggy. It was nowhere to be found, of
course. lie w as soon told lhat the Sute'a
Attorney bsd taken and driven away in it.
The case, however, was not long a mud
dled orici The parties being well known to
each other, and being known by the com
munity aa peopie ol honest intentions, it
was understood that it was a mistake. Mr.
Rothrock took the conveyanee that had been
sent down for Patterson by Sulouff, and
drove home in it. The humorously dis
posed portion of the community felt dis
posed to make rport out of the case, and
hobnobbed together until they p.anned to
have Patterson arrested on his return, and
sent to jail for stealing Hot rock's horse.
Information was made against him en that
charge, in the name of Joseph Rothrock,
and cn Wednesday evening when he re
turned ha was put under arrest ; but before
the programme for imprisoning and giving
bim a hearing was carried out, some one
apprised htm of the joke, and consequently
he ignored tha whole proceedings of the
btimorouxly or joking party. Mr. Kotbrock's
horse and buggy was sent home on Thurs
day morning, and thus the comedy ol errors
was ended.

A coaatsroNDEST frottf McVey

to

eoutents. Tbe oldest boy awakened by

uoeovered. and when be discovered tho
building in flames, be awakened his
younger brother and both stoiuddown
stairs to escape.
On their way oat tbey heard the
cries of their sisters, and started to
rescue tbeni, but before they could
reach the room in which the girls were,
a portion cf burning timber fell between
fheui and the girls' room, completely
obstructing their further efforts in sav
ing fie now perishing children. All
means of escape were now off and the
children perished in tbe flames. Mr.
aud Mas. Cutman slept on the first
floor, and effected their escape with the
boys. Tbe girls were aged respective
ly fobrteen and six.
Their remains were not recovered on.
til about 9 o'clock next morning, when
bu: a small portion, the upper part of
tho tbiphs of the older, and a piece
; about the size of a man's fist of the
younger ehild were found ; other thin
this no trace of the bodies eould be

were carefully taken out of tbe ruins
by Dr. J. M. Brown. ' In addition

On last Friday evening the residence
of Charles Kaup, in Wbeatfield town
ship, some three miles from Duncan
non, was entered by a burglar. Tbe
villain entered the bedroom and struck
Kaup over tbe bead with a hatchet, ren
dering him insensible. Tbe villain
next attacked Mrs. Raupand her child,
but tbe hatchet flying off tbe handle,
they were not so badly injured. A son
of Mr. Kaup, bearing the noit-e in the
room below, struck a light aud came
down stairs, when the robber hurriedly
left for fear of detection, taking with
him a watch, gun, and other property.
A frau-p, pretending to be deaf and
dumb, and who bad been working for
kaup for a few days, is supposed to be
the guilty party. On Saturday and
Sunday Raup was still in a dangertns
eoudition.
Since the above was written, we learn
that Raup is in a fair way to recover.
He was struck twice on tbe head with
the pole of tbe hatchet and twice with
the edge. Mrs. Raup was bruised from
the elbow to tbe shoulder, and tbe little
girl was cut on the forehead with tbe
hatclet, and was insensible for some
time. Perry Counly .ldvocate, .May 2.
One of the " scalp manufacturers"
of Blair county was tried and found
guilty, at Ilollidaysburg last week. His
name is Robert Walla, and bis opera
tions in the crooked-scalp business were
confined principally to Frankstown
township. It appeared on evidence
that tbe defendant swore before a jus
tice of the peace that he bad killed,
within three months from the beginning
of December last, no less than 41 foxes,
29 minks, 79 weasels, 30 pole cats, 45
hawks, 12 wild eats, 6 crows, and 4
owls all in two townships of that
county and it was shown that these
were scalps which he had manufactured
by cutting them our of skins of aui-
male with shears. It was also alleged
by counsel for the Commonwealth that
be had acknowledged to making these
scalps, and that he drew the money for
them, and that he drew tbe bounty
twice on every crow be killed, by get-
tinir An tinnntr nn tha hpad and in-
o J
other on the feet of tbe same crow.
Tbere are nineteen indictments in the
hands of the District Attorney against
young men who reside in Frankstown
acd Catharine townships, and some of
them have been arrested. Ex.
OVEtt at Sbatuokin lately one man
shot two others and then shot himself.
The difficulty arose from tbe bcirs be
ing unable to amicably divide tbe prop
erty of Mrs. John Boyd wbo died sud
denly tbe week before. Martin Siaf
ford, a aon-in law of Mrs. Boyd, en
tered the bouse of Mr. Boyd, and get
ting into a dispute he shot at Boyd
three times, two balls taking effect,
lie also sbot Famuel Clayberger wbo
bad interfered to prevent a collision.
Tben be ran out of doors, and believ
ing he had killed both Boyd and Clay
berger, concluded to finish tbe job by
shooting himself, which be did twice.
Although serirnsly wounded, there is
bope for all to recover, thongh the
chances of Stafford ate not very fair.
